GLENDALE — Freedom Loving Youth (FLY) is a non-profit organization and its mission is to improve and transform the lives of disadvantaged and orphaned children worldwide. Since its establishment, its team of dedicated volunteers works relentlessly towards realizing its mission of helping children.

Due to the current situation in Syria, we were faced with harsh challenges, and worked hard to collect donations and help as many children as possible. It gave us the opportunity to grow and to reach more orphans and children of families in need. The project started in September 2014 as schools began. To date, FLY organized three very successful fundraising events and was able to provide many essentials for children and families in need. We were able to help 425 children not only in Damascus but also in Aleppo and Kamishli (Damascus 125 children, Aleppo 250 children, and in Kamishli 50 children). While Syria faced a harsh winter, FLY helped the children with school supplies, but mainly with warm clothing, shoes, sport wear, tennis shoes, warm jackets, warm sweaters and pajamas. FLY also provided beds for unfortunate children and wheelchairs for families with disabled children. FLY directly works with Bishop Armash Nalbandian, the Bishop of Damascus, Syria, and ensures that every penny is donated to the designated caus. FLY made a big difference and is set to continue its mission to transform the lives of countless children in need worldwide.

The trust and the support of our donors encourage us to expand our operation. You have the opportunity to contribute to this great cause by attending our upcoming event.

This year’s theme is “Hope… dreams do come true.” A night full of surprises, celebrities, well known performers and gourmet catering will complete this memorable experience. All the proceeds will be donated to Armenian orphans and children in need in Syria.

Be a part of this great cause & have the opportunity to transform the lives of Armenian orphans & children in need living in poverty in the devastating war of Syria now. Each one of you can be the light for a child in need. Remember, YOU are the answer to their prayers. Together let’s all make a great difference.
